    I have to remind myself all the time that just like a runner in the race, if I fall down, I don't have to go all the way back to the starting line but just get up and keep going! :smile:

    ^^^ Love this!!

    Thanks for sharing your story. I needed to hear this today, and you are such an inspiration. The way you have handled grief and hardship, by "dusting yourself off" and getting back to working on your weight and health shows true strength of character. You will continue to be successful because of this. So many of us got to an unhealthy, overweight state, partially because of challenges and sadness in our lives, and not handling that in the best way. Working through what you have been through, and persevering, is awesome. My condolences to you and your wife, and I hope you have a happier road ahead. You rock!!

    Coach Simon, first, I want to say that I am mostly impressed with how thoughtful and helpful you have been to your wife and her parents. That says volumes about who you are. As far as your weight loss, you have done an amazing job at persevering through tough times. Again, that says a lot about who you are. You are a strong person and I know you will be successful at whatever you put your mind and energy to. Thank you for sharing your story and your pictures because it is all very inspiring. Best wishes on losing the rest of your weight. I know you will do it. Congrats!

    Karen, thank you very much for your kind words. For me, family always comes first, even if that means I have to pause what I was doing.

    I know that had to be scary for you MIL to be there for 2 days waiting for someone. :-(

    But, I agree, moving her to her new place is burning come calories.

    Lots of pics, but I think that helps US to be on the journey with you.

    I am so glad you have such a supportive wife. And you have done such a GREAT job. Keep it up!!

    I think you have done a tremendous job! It is very encouraging to read that you kept fighting all this time and I'm really proud of you. It really does not matter when you get to your goal, it just matters that you get there. Thanks for sharing your journey.
